Cu metal has work function 4.8ev can show photoelectric effect if wavelength of photon is

Cu metal has work function 4.8ev can show photoelectric effect if wavelength of photon is

Text Solution

Answer : 4

Solution : the enrgy associated with incident photon `(hc)/( lambda)` <br> ` rArr E = (6.6 xx 10^(-34) xx 3 xx 10^8)/( 300 xx 10^(-90) J` <br> ` E` in `eV = ( 6.6 xx 10^(-34) xx .3 xx 10^8)/( 300 xx 10^(-9) xx 1.6 xx 10^(-19)) = 4. 16 eV` <br> So, number fo metal showing phote -electric effects whill be (4) , i, e, Li, na, K, Mg, .
